Cape Sabine is a land point on Pim Island, off the eastern shores of the Johan Peninsula, Ellesmere Island, in the Smith Sound, Qikiqtaaluk Region, Nunavut, Canada.

This headland was the site of the winter camp of Adolphus Greely and the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition in 1883/84.

This cape was named after Arctic explorer Sir Edward Sabine (1788-1883).
